I'm all set now

What notes are you planning to work in Dendron?

Out of curiosity

@User it's a common issue. vscode doesn't give us a way currently to disable the other preview 😅

@User Me? I'm using it in two places: work and home. For work, I open a note for each issue I'm working on, as well as transferring my old Joplin knowledgebase over. At home, I'm using it for a journal and taking notes of things as I teach myself Python and Go

I'm having a bit of an issue with backlinks. Basically when I use a

[[labeled|wiki.link]]

I don't get the backlink on the page that's being linked to. Is this working as intended or did I not read something somewhere and I'm doing it wrong?

Hey guys I am trying to publish my pages to github so i can have my own gitpages. Can somebody help me with it?

I tried following this https://www.dendron.so/notes/73d395c9-5041-4d0d-9db7-080d9586136e.html but i can't get it

@User backlinks should work when labelled. are you using dendron markdown notes?

@User can you give some details of where in the process this is breaking down?

I’m pretty sure. I installed all recommended packages

@User thanks!

@User if you look at the dendron docs, we use labelled wiki-links liberally with backlinks

> @User There's something called dendron-cli > https://www.dendron.so/notes/8b03ed06-4f46-46e0-8652-c6abf2266a79.html @User @User I am trying to use it, but I keep getting > TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "path" argument must be of type string.

And the --wsRoot, shouldn't it be clear where my dendron workspace is located, if the command already has my --vault?

@Leite the dendron-cli has a very rough interface right now. you need to specify the

wsRoot

because a vault can be located anywhere (by default, its inside the

wsRoot

). the podId is what you see when you run

Import Pod

inside vscode

not very well documented right now, will be updating the docs before eow 😅

so this is a seed, but what's the difference between seeds and normal (published) notes?

no difference. seeds are just a framework that help you import notes from existing content and format it into dendron hierarchies

Would it be possible to have a functionality similar to the one introduced in `0.11.2`: When I'm writing a note and find the need to create a new note: - highlight some text - create note from lookup. Instead of the text being extracted, a note link is created with the label being the highlighted text. This would be more useful to me personally, thoughts ?

What do you mean look note from lookup?

Typo, fixed

I meant you just create a note from lookup

i think you can do it now

Not in the way I described it, I don't think

@p0lyg0n So essentially it's a command to turn selected text into a link? Link destination is found by lookup and selected text stays as link label. That's a good idea). There could be a shortcut to do this but I wonder if it could be triggered by selecting text and then hitting

[

twice. Then the text turns into a link and lookup shows up to pick a destination.

I think hitting

Ctrl+L

to trigger the lookup would make more sense, but this could be configurable depending on how the user likes it

I just like how vscode wraps selected text in brackets, so that closing brackets are added automatically). And the selected text is in double brackets and almost a link already after this treatment.

@User just to make sure i understand this, is this what you want? - before extraction - afile.md

this is the greatest foo in the world

- after extraction - afile.md

this is the greatest foo in the world

- foo.md

---
title: foo
---

[[this is the greatest foo in the world|afile]]

if so, its actually also a use case i have 😅 the main challenge is trying to figure out the ux. i can see a case for people wanting to go either way (extracting the text vs extracting as a link). i'm thinking of creating a default behavior and setting a toggle button on lookup

also, could you submit this as a feature request so we can track it? https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/new?assignees=&labels=&template=feature_request.md&title= 😇
